the gap between the rich and the poor is getting wider and wider, and this seems to flow in the opposite direction to the value we hoped for through bitcoin, which is very frustrating.
Yeah well, that doesn't surprise me. The rich are always going to have more capital to invest in things like bitcoin and they're the ones who reap the most benefit from doing so. I don't think the poor have much use for bitcoin at all, despite what a lot of people have said over the years about it being able to help the unbanked--and that's not exclusive to Korea or any part of the world, either.
I like how you are always open to opinions TP. I need to add that for all the hate that is reserved for "shitcoins", the only thing related to Bitcoin that has actually made the "poor" better off in the last few years is this forum. That again is not because the forum introduces people to bitcoin but because it introduces them to crazy alt-coins and blockchain games where you can farm crypto.
With the airdrop season on Ethereum and other chains, people who have been engaged have gotten fair rewards compared to those who just stuck to bitcoin. Those who ventured past gained better understanding and are earning better. The maximalist position of denial has really been shitty for those who believe in it.
